AB More  than  a  quarter  of  a  century  since  Albert  Kligman,  M.D.,  Ph.D.,  introduced  the  term  “cosmeceutical,”  the  existence  of  this  group  of  compounds  has  never  been  officially  or  legally  recognized,  leaving  this  category  of  products  largely  unregulated.1  The  United  States  Food  and  Drug  Administration  (USFDA)  classifies  personal  care  products  as  a  drug,  cosmetic,  or  both  [e.g.,  antidandruff  shampoos  or  moisturizers  with  sun  protection  factor  (SPF)].  Cosmeceutical  products,  which  are  personal  care  products  that  may  actually  yield  a  biologic  impact,  fall  between  the  cracks  of  these  incomplete  designations.
